Hello from Italy! I have kept budgies as pets since 2014 and I currently have three: Sid (10-year-old male), Charlie (3-year-old male) and Sandy (1½-year-old female). Sid was my first budgie ever, so I'm proud to say that the one I started this adventure with is still with me! This community seems to be welcoming and very helpful so I can't wait to be part of it!

Thank you both so much! The one in my profile picture would be Charlie, I'll add pictures of Sid and Sandy here. The story of my flock is a little complex (I'm sure all are haha), but I've already posted a thread about their current situation. Later on, I will definitely tell you more about them!

I must say, Sid looks very youthful for 10 years old.
I have an 11 year old boy called George, he's outlived a lot of budgies!

Hello and welcome to our forum. Sid is doing well at 10 years old. I also have a 10 and a half (plus a bit) older fellow. He’s having his first ever true bromance with the baby of my three, which I think is kind of sweet.

Thank you all so much! That photo of Sid is actually from 2 years ago, but I had it ready on my computer so I posted it out of laziness. He looks a bit older now and has "slowed down" lately, although not in a worrying way. I'm glad elderly budgies are not so rare after all! This is Sid today, he wanted to get out of the cage:

Aw, poor Sid and his head full of pinnies (pin feathers). He does look a bit grumpy about them.
